Denim For Dollars

We Dress Down To Raise Others Up

Denim for Dollars is a fundraising effort led by staff members in which employees who choose to participate donate a minimum amount each City payday to wear jeans. Employees select one of three causes they would like to support — First Responders, Social Outreach or Animal Wellness. The funds are then donated to different organizations within our community.

Since 2015, Beach Municipal FCU and our members have donated more than $27,082.62 to our Denim For Dollars recipients.

During the previous quarter, our employees elected to send their contributions to the following organizations:

Hope for Life

In February of 2002, after 7 years of prayer, Hope for Life Rescue Inc. became a reality. The founder had been rescuing animals independently for several years prior and on many occasions went to other local rescue meetings to see how they operated.

At Hope for Life, we are a PRO-LIFE organization committed to the rescue and placement of abandoned, abused, and neglected animals typically coming from high-kill facilities. We often see animals in horrible condition as we try to take those that need our help the most.

Both of our facilities are cage free. We are a private organization and we get no city or state funding and no grants. We operate solely on donations from people and businesses in our community. We cannot continue the mission without your support. 

 

Virginia Beach CASA

Virginia Beach Court Appointed Special Advocates (CASA) recruits, trains and supports volunteers to advocate for child victims of abuse and neglect who are too young to speak for themselves in the complicated family legal system.

Learn About Advocacy

CASA volunteers are members of the community who receive extensive education and training in order to advocate for abused and neglected children who are thrust into juvenile and domestic relations court and often, into foster care.

Ways to Give 

CASA volunteers advocate for these children to make sure they don't get lost in an overburdened system. Their ultimate responsibility is to promote safe, permanent homes as quickly as possible. It is incredibly challenging work but one child at a time, CASA volunteers are making a difference in our community, and most importantly, in the lives of the children we serve.
